As 1 got closer to the accident, I was advised that life flight was in the area, and'that they were going to be shutting Northbound 1-15 down to make room for the helicopter to land. I advised Deputy Wade Lee who was staged near the scene for traf?c control that as soon as I got there! would assist with the closure. However, beforel arrived on scene the command was given from officers on scene to close the lanes down so that the helicopter could land. A few moments later, I overheard radio traf?c that there had been a secondary accident in the backup from closing the interstate down. I responded to the secondary accident first to assess the situation and provide service to due to lack of resources at that location. Upon stabilizing that incident, I was relieved of my duties and allowed to proceed to the original accident involving the ON SCENE OBSERVATI DNS: I arrived on scene of the accident at approximately 17'14 hours. I made contact with with Lt. Steve Espiin who had responded to the incident due to its nature, and Trooper Alan Jensen who had witnessed the accident while traveling through the area. I was advised that there was one male on scene who medical personnel had determined to be deceased. I was advised that the male was also a Millard County Sheriffs Deputy. I advised Lt. Espiin that I would handle the investigation since I was the ?rst area Trooper to arrive at the scene. Lt. Espiin advised me that the males face appeared to have made contact with a deiineator post during the accident. He stated that the male had a firearm near him when he arrived on scene. Lt. Espiin advised me that he had secured the firearm inside of his vehicle. I retrieved my camera and began walking through the scene of the accident photographing evidence. I observed that there were black tire marks in the emergency lane where the had left the road. The marks were not consistent with a skid, but appeared more likely to be from a deflated tire slapping the roads surface. Near where the tire marks left the roadway, 1 observed a gouge in the asphalt consistent with the right foot peg on the impacting the surface. On the shoulder of the road, I observed intermittent disturbances in the grass and dirt leading to a dark colored Harley Davidson There was personal items and vehicle debris scattered along the shoulder from near where the exited the pavement all the way to the right of way fence in front of the I observed that there was a body which was covered with a white sheet laying on the shoulder of the road. I observed a deiineator post which was partly bent over and appeared to have a small amount of blood near the reflector plate at the top of the post. I observed a red helmet sitting on the shoulder of the road to the North of the deceased male. I was advised that the female passenger on the had come to rest at that location.

Detective Michael Bleak with Cedar City PD was contacted to respond to the scene as a Medical Examiner! and Southern Utah Mortuary was Contacted to respond to the scene to take possession of Mr. Nielson's body. Bradshaw Towing responded to the scene to recover the 3. I did a visual inspection of the and found that the front tire was still inflated and appeared to be in good condition. When I inspected the rear tire, I observed that the sidewall on the right side of the tire was blown out and that the tread appeared to have numerous cracks and signs of separation. Upon observing the condition of the rear tire, I noted that the marks on the road were consistent with tire slap from a tire that had gone ?at or blown out. I observed that there was considerable damage to the left front corner of the and that there were scrapes on the left side storage box suggesting that the had slid on its left side at some point during the accident. I observed that the right side storage box had been thrown from the and that the rear storage trunk had been smashed and broken apart. Laying past the near the fence, I located numerous personal items scattered on the ground including a brown backpack which contained women's items and a small Taurus pistol. The backpack and a cell phone case that was located on the ground were secured inside of Lt. Esplin's car temporarily until I secured the items inside of my vehicle at a later time. 4. Once Southern Utah Mortuary personnel and Detective Bleak arrived on scene. I assisted them with the medical examiners on scene investigation. I noted that Mr. Nielsen was wearing an open faced helmet. gloves. and various pieces of protective leather clothing. I observed the the left side of Mr. Nielsen?s face had signi?cant trauma consistent with impacting the deiineator post near his body. At the conclusion of the on scene examination, Mr. Nielsen?s body was secured by Southern Utah Mortuary and transported from the scene. 5.
